PM6004 suit well MA RX6 ?

[admin_exported]

Hello everybody and Merry Christmas

I am wondering if the PM6004 will be a good ( budget match ) amp for my new RX6 speakers and CD6004 ?
Or should I choose something more powerful like NAD 355 BEE ? Any suggestions for a good amp which will no cost more then 600 pounds are welcome .

Thank you

I find that Marantz and MA (RX series at least) match wonderful.

The Marantz PM6004 *should* be able to drive those RX6 speakers thanks to their high sensitivity (90dB), but a higher quality more powerfull amp would make them truely sing and unleash their true potential. The 7004 would be a better match imo.

The NAD 355BEE is also an option and similar to the 7004 in terms of power, but it sounds a little different with a less open soundstage and a bit less detail, but that comes down to personal taste.

Try to audition them both. Most hifi shops have a pair of RX6 available for demo, and those amps are popular too.

They deserve a better amp, but it will drive them. Try a 2nd hand Leema Pulse 2.
